MOTORCAR PARTS OF AMERICA REPORTS RECORD FISCAL 2017
SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

-- Product Line Expansion Enhances Growth Opportunities --

LOS ANGELES, CA – November 9, 2016 – Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. (Nasdaq: MPAA) today reported results for its fiscal 2017 second quarter -- reflecting record profitability on both a reported and adjusted basis.

Net sales for the fiscal 2017 second quarter were $108.8 million compared with $91.7 million for the same period a year earlier. The company’s sales performance for the fiscal 2017 second quarter reflects continued strength of its rotating electrical and wheel hub business, as well as contributions from its other product lines -- including the company’s emerging brake power boosters, which commenced in August. Sales were partially offset by certain customer allowances and return accruals related to new business.

All results labeled as “adjusted” in this press release are non-GAAP measures as discussed more fully below under the heading “Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”

Adjusted net sales for the fiscal 2017 second quarter were $112.4 million compared with $101.7 million a year earlier.

Net income for the fiscal 2017 second quarter was $9.1 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.08 per share, a year ago.

Adjusted net income for the fiscal 2017 second quarter was $12.4 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, compared with $11.8 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, in the same period a year earlier.

Gross profit for the fiscal 2017 second quarter was $30.7 million compared with $21.8 million a year earlier. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal 2017 second quarter was 28.2 percent compared with 23.8 percent a year earlier, primarily due to customer allowances related to new business.

Adjusted gross profit for the fiscal 2017 second quarter was $34.5 million compared with $31.4 million a year ago. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of adjusted net sales for the three months was 30.7 percent compared with 30.9 percent a year earlier.

Net sales for the fiscal 2017 six-month period were $194.2 million compared with $177.5 million a year earlier.

Adjusted net sales for the six-month period were $206.2 million compared with $188.4 million last year.

Net income for the six-month period was $16.7 million, or $0.86 per diluted share, compared with $518,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in fiscal 2016.

Adjusted net income for the first half of fiscal 2017 was $22.5 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, compared with $20.1 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, in fiscal 2016.

Gross profit for the fiscal 2017 six-month period was $51.0 million compared with $47.8 million a year earlier. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the fiscal 2017 first half was 26.3 percent compared with 26.9 percent a year earlier, primarily due to customer allowances related to new business.

Adjusted gross profit for the fiscal 2017 the six-month period was $64.8 million compared with $58.2 million a year ago. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of adjusted net sales for the six months was 31.4 percent compared with 30.9 percent a year earlier.

“As we commence the second half of fiscal 2017, we are well-positioned within the aftermarket industry. We anticipate solid growth in all of our product lines, and we are encouraged by the numerous additional opportunities we are seeing,” said Selwyn Joffe, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Motorcar Parts of America.

“Results for the quarter reflect continued strength of our business – supported by an aging vehicle population, increased miles driven and related factors, all of which continue to contribute to overall growth in the aftermarket industry. As always, we thank our entire team for their day-in and day-out commitment to excellence and our company,” Joffe said

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes the following non-GAAP measures - adjusted net sales, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin, which are not measures of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as alternatives to net sales, net income (loss), EBITDA, income from operations, gross profit or gross profit margin as a measure of financial performance. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures, when considered together with the corresponding GAAP measures, provide useful information to investors and management regarding financial and business trends relating to the company’s results of operations. However, these non-GAAP measures have significant limitations in that they do not reflect all of the costs associated with the operations of the company’s business as determined in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, investors should consider non-GAAP measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP. For a reconciliation of adjusted net sales, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted EBITDA, adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin to their corresponding GAAP measures, see the financial tables included in this press release. Also refer to our Form 8-K to which this release is attached, and other filings we make with the SEC, for further information regarding these adjustments.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company has included the following non-GAAP adjusted financial measures in this press release and in the webcast to discuss the Company's financial results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Each of these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses and gains. Among other things, the Company uses such non-GAAP adjusted financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures to help analyze the performance of its business.

These non-GAAP adjusted financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of the Company's results of operations and the factors and trends affecting the Company's business. However, these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Income statement information for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 are as follows:
